Earlier, I posted some examples of images made in two ways: Using the shift function of the GF 30/5.6 T/S lens with the sensor parallel to the target. Using no shifting, yawing the camera to put the target in the same place in the image, and using Photoshop in postproduction to make it seem as… [Read More]

This image was developed in Lightroom with lens profile corrections off. I added the red line at the top… [Read More]
